Thoughts on the Social Blockchain Working Group and OpenSeed

in hive-136578 •  5 years ago 

Believe it or not I am still unsure of the goal of and what is open seed. it has not been explained very well. I read one post and it seems like it will be a block chain explorer, like an early Netscape, I read another post and it is going to be a block chain only centralized. I keep reading about it, but it is still not clear what the project is about, what the time table is for realization. There is no real clear communications on the hopes dreams and goals for the Open Seed project, at least none that are clearly stated or understandable. Now reading your post it is going to be a centralized Database? What like Oracle? Crypto Currency is difficult to grasp and wrap my head around. Is it just going to be a dApp, then why the need for steem block chain user to "migrate" to it? Open Seed is still a confusion to me in other words.

    OpenSeed is an opensource database. It also has some decentralized features in that anyone can run a node. It has features that will make building applications faster and easier and was built specifically with a lot of the problems that Steem faces in mind. For example...

    • User accounts
      So on Steem to make a new account, we have to make a blockchain level account which is slow and cumbersome, but with OpenSeed you could make accounts as easily as other centralized services.
    • Chat
      Chat is fast and not necessarily something you want to be public. OpenSeed allows you to make something private, something that can be deleted, basically all the things you expect with a chat client. Only it can be integrated into Steem dapps across the board with a consistent experience.

    Everything it does is along these lines. All the things that social applications need, but that either doesn't require or doesn't work on a blockchain, OpenSeed is there to fill those gaps.
